Here’s some of my favorite bridal photographs from Ashleigh’s bridal session at Legare Waring House. Legare Waring House is probably my favorite venue after seeing so many great places. I know a lot of brides want originality but this place can’t be beat. If you’re ever in the area be sure to go check it out.
Here’s Julie & Wayne who were married at the historic Chinqua Penn Plantation in North Carolina. Wayne is the only guy ever to call a timeout during an engagement session to grab a beer. They lived in Alabama when I met them and have recently moved to Tennessee. I’ve been to Tennessee twice in the last month and wished I had time to stop and see them.
Julie actually bought me a custom hanger after I met them in Charleston for their engagement session. One of the few things I complain about at weddings is the dress hangers people use. It’s usually one detail that is overlooked. The hanger she bought me ended up only being able to support a small amount of weight, though, so I never got to use it.
Here is Wayne’s dad who helped restore the 54 Chevy Bel Air for the wedding. You may notice the car is wet too. We actually ended up battling the rain during a portion of the wedding. A battle we won, too!
Probably my favorite photo from the day.
That’s Julie’s brother about to walk her down the aisle. Her father passed away 6+ years ago but was able to give the car to Julie on her 16th birthday.
Here’s part two of Laura’s bridal. There could be a part three and four but I’ll spare everyone. I’ve been traveling a lot lately but I’ve been in Columbia since Tuesday. I’ve spent most of my time this week behind the computer editing. My fridge has been empty so I pretty much only leave the house to go eat(exciting right!?!?). Earlier today I went to the gas station and bought some gummy bears and a snickers bar. So pretty normal, right? Yes, of course! Well later in the day I go get dinner. I then go by the same gas station because I STILL have that sweet craving. I get out of the car and I see the same cashier working that was there earlier in the day. I was pretty embarrassed so I just got back in the car and took myself straight home.
That’s me. I’ve been at super formal weddings and have been busted by the catering company for eating the cake when professionals like me have a designated area with designated food. In that situation you just act dumb and drool like you didn’t know any better. I skipped the cake this past weekend and had some banana pudding from Southern Way Catering. It was pretty amazing!
